Universal Tickets

Our two ticket choices for November are:

2-day, 2-park: $160 per person, ages 3 and up

These tickets are valid for Islands of Adventure and Universal Studios for 2 days,** and since they’re park-to-park, you’ll be able to ride the Hogwarts Express from one park to the other.

3-day, 3-park: $218 per person, ages 3 and up

These tickets are valid for Islands of Adventure, Universal Studios, and Volcano Bay, (Universal’s new water park). This ticket is valid for 3 days** and are park-to-park, so you can hop between all three parks (and ride the Hogwarts Express).

**Our tickets are valid from April 20 to May 18, so you have some leeway in your travel dates. However, you must use all days within 7 days. The clock starts ticking the first day you use the ticket, and they won’t refund unused days.

Prices include your choice of tickets, your registration fee, all taxes, and shipping.

Please read the information for each type of ticket and be sure of your choice before you register and pay. Once you pay, that’s it – no changes. (A few people making changes isn’t a big deal – a thousand or more people making changes is overwhelming.)

Payment & Refund Policy

• I accept personal checks, bank checks, BillPay paper checks (not electronic checks) and Zelle online transfer (if your bank offers those services). I can’t accept PayPal, credit cards, or other payment methods.
• Payment is due within 7 days of the date I send your confirmation email, so please don’t register until you’re able to pay in full.
• If you need to cancel after paying for your tickets, you will be charged a $25 per-ticket cancellation fee. Tickets aren’t transferable.
• Your signed registration, waiver, and payment acknowledges your understanding and agreement with my cancellation and refund policy.
